The EHS Athletics and Arts Departments are now accepting applications for the MSHSL AAA Award (or Triple “A” Award). The purpose of this award is to recognize and honor high school seniors who have excelled in the classroom, on the athletic field, AND in the fine arts. Applications are due on December 12th.
National Honor Society members are required to complete 12 hours of approved service/volunteer hours each trimester, totaling 36 hours per year. Students are able to accumulate 5 hours of community service over the summer which can count toward their 12 fall trimester hours. Please be aware that these hours must be separate from any required service related to other organizations of which you may be a member.
Follow this LINK for more information on National Honor Society.
